He then stepback andsays: "We havebeen calledforth fromthe

Olympus. I am Tiresias, Prophet of Thebes, who, though blind, shall
be his guide. Seeker, come forth!"
984

Tiresias: "Who seeks entry to Olympus?"
Seeker: "I, __________.
Tiresias: "Beforeyou enter,gaze uponone whosought whatwas
not rightfully his. Do you still desire entry?"

Tiresias: (If no,he leaves and circleis closed. Ifyes):
"Then enter and ask passage of the Guardians of the Gods."
Seeker enters and they travel 1 1/8 to North.

With me is one who seeks entry to Olympus."
Hephaestus: "How are you known, Seeker?"
Seeker: "I am called __________."
Hephaestus:"By whatright seekyoupassage throughthe North?"
Seeker: "I haveendured ayear of thepath ofEarth andlearned
of my own mortality."
Hephaestus: "Pass with the Blessings of the Earth."
They travel around 1 1/4 to East.
Tiresias: "Hail,Vigilant Artemis,Virgin Goddess. Withme is
one who seeks entry to Olympus."
Artemis: "How are you known, Seeker?"
Seeker: "I am called __________."
Artemis: "By what right seek you passage through the East?"

They travel around 1 1/4 to South.

one who seeks entry to Olympus."
Apollo: "How are you known, Seeker?"
Seeker: "I am called __________."
Apollo: "By what right seek you passage through the South?"
Seeker has no answer.
Apollo: "Youhave not yetearned theright topass through the
South. To win this right, you must seek Fire from he
who first gave it to Mankind, Prometheus. Tiresias, guard
him upon his path of Fire that he learn what he needs to
face the Titan."
They travel around 1 1/2 to North.
Tiresias: "Icome with __________, whonow seeks Prometheus
that he may gain the right to Fire. What can you teach
him that will ease his path?"
985
Hephaestus: "Knowthat Iam Hephaestus,Craftsman andSmith of
the Gods. In my labors, I use Fire as a purifying
agent, seperating the metal from the stone, and
for the actual forging of my Art. But remember that
creativity requires forethought. Daedalus w a s a
Master of my Craft, yet rarely considered t h e
implications of his creations. He created the
Labyrinth of Minos, who then imprisoned him within i t s
intricacies. He crafted wing that he and his s o n
might escape, yet in their flight Icarus died.
Always consider the consequences of the which you
create."
They travel 1 1/4 around to East.
Tiresias: "I come with __________,who now seeks Prometheus
that he may gain the right to Fire. What can you teach
him that will ease his path?"
Artemis: "Knowthat I amArtemis, VirginHuntress. Through my
will, no man has ever known me. Yet will must be
tempered by intellegence. Remember Otus and
Ephialtes, twin giants who were arrogant enough to think
themselves better than the Gods. They continued their
ill-wrought plans, even after Poseidon warned
them. Through supposed desire, they chose to pursue
me. They seperated in pursuit of what they saw as a
white hind, and, with simultaneous throws, slew each
other. Thus blind will caused the death of all they
truly loved."
They travel 1 1/4 around to the South
Tiresias: "Icome with __________, whonow seeks Prometheus
that he may gain the right to Fire. What can you teach
him that will ease his path?"
Apollo: "Know thatI am Apollo, Godof the Sun andKeeper of
Knowledge. Knowledge of Fire has allowed Man to forge
a civilization. But seeking to advance without
can lead to catastrophe. Witness Phaethon, who
attempted to drive the Sun Chariot without proper
knowledge, nearly causing the incineration of the
Earth. Action without knowledge will often lead to
ruin."
They travel around 1 1/4 to the West.
Tiresias: "I come with__________, who now seeks Prometheus
that he may gain the right to Fire. What can you teach
him that will ease his path?"
Hestia: "Know that I amHestia, Goddess of Hearthand Home.
The warm glow of emotion in balance is vital for
proper growth and life. But when emotions are
allowed to rule above all else, tragedy is soon to
follow. Consider Paris, who upon seeing Helen, bowed
to an all-consuming desire for her, kidnapping her
without thought of the consequences. Thus began the
Trojan War. Do not bury your emotions, but
neither should you elevate them to the level of
Ruler.

Seeker: "By the right of perfect love and perfect trust."
Prometheus: "Thenknow thatyou are wellmet. I willgrant you
Fire and its path for a year and a day that you
might learn its lessons. The most important
lesson it can teach you is the need for thought
before action of any kind. You must always consider
the consequences of all that you do or say. At the
end of your time on this path, you will be judged
on your fitness to continue your search."
